Global Catastrophe: I Became the World Tree-Chapter 988 - 574: Complete Suppression

Ye Feng had long anticipated this moment.

So, when Qiu Bingrong erupted with the aura of a late-stage True God, Ye Feng’s figure retreated explosively without hesitation.

There was no need for him to clash head-on; all he had to do was wait for the War Fortress to suppress the opponent back to the Tenth Order, and the battle would be over.

This was precisely why the Tianxing Minefield posed such a great threat to these True God Strongmen.

Unless one was a God King Strongman, no matter who came, they would ultimately be suppressed to the same level of cultivation.

Seeing Ye Feng turn to flee without hesitation, Qiu Bingrong immediately chased after him and furiously shouted, "Where do you think you’re running, you thief!"

This was a provocation tactic.

He had played his hand, but the opponent had not yet revealed theirs. If he could not force the opponent to go all out, then he really wouldn’t stand a chance at surviving.

If he could make the opponent come back and fight desperately, then without their most important trump card, perhaps the opponent would consider his reinforcements and choose to retreat, giving him a chance to live.

Thus, at this moment, he held nothing back, and the Divine Artifact in his hand shone brightly. With the infusion of Divine Power, it truly unleashed the might that belonged to a Divine Artifact.

Boom!

With one slash, it held the power to sever the starry sky.

This was a slash from a True God Level, and even if the force of the slash weakened after its release, it would not diminish by much due to the short distance between them and the swift attack speed of a True God.

Qiu Bingrong believed that if his opponent did not unleash their true strength, they would surely perish under this slash.

Ye Feng frowned as he watched the opponent’s all-out slash. In fact, he could have dodged it.

Just like before, he could have hidden in the Void Chaotic Layer. In such a disordered space, any targeted attack would be a joke, only close-range combat would be possible.

But if he did that, he would have to lift the Spatial Seal, and then the opponent could take the chance to teleport away.

"Forget it, it might be good to test my true combat power," Ye Feng muttered to himself and instantly released the seal on himself.

His aura also began to surge instantly, but compared to his opponent, the increase wasn’t as exaggerated, and in the end, he only rose to the Demigod Realm.

Although the aura emanating from Ye Feng was far beyond that of an ordinary Demigod, there was a qualitative difference between a Demigod and a True God.

"Demigod?" Qiu Bingrong looked at Ye Feng somewhat dumbfounded, then burst into rage the next instant.

He never expected to be played by a Demigod.

"Very good!" He slashed out another prepared strike.

This slash was originally reserved for when Ye Feng showed his True God strength, but he used it prematurely now.

The power of these two slashes together was overwhelming; not to mention one Demigod, he was confident he could eradicate ten of them together.

On the other hand, after Ye Feng unleashed his full strength, the first thing he sensed was the constricting force from all directions.

Then came the threat from Qiu Bingrong.

Yes, after recovering to the Demigod Realm, Ye Feng felt that the threat Qiu Bingrong presented was less than the restraining force released by the War Fortress.

It wasn’t that the opponent was weak, but that he was too powerful.

Half a year ago, when the World Tree had just broken through to the Demigod Realm, it easily defeated four Great Daoist Authorities’ Elder who were at the peak of the True God Level.

If that battle wasn’t a one against four, it would not have been so difficult to win.

Now, half a year had passed, and Ye Feng had mastered another Supreme Rule, the strongest of the Five Great Supreme Rules — the Time Rule.

Now, the enemy he faced was just a late-stage True God Level.

Boom!

At this moment, Ye Feng truly unleashed his full power. The "Thunderbolt Divine Body" gave him a 55-fold increase in strength, and the "Law of Heaven and Earth" added another 10-fold enhancement. The double effects combined instantly surged his strength by 550 times.

Under such circumstances, when he thrust his spear, the three Great Supreme Rules all converged within the Void-splitting Divine Spear in his hand.

Even though the Void-splitting Divine Spear was already a top-tier Divine Artifact, at this moment it seemed to struggle to withstand Ye Feng’s ferocious power.

A rainbow streaked across the galaxy!

This spear thrust was the most lethal technique within the Tiangang Gun Method, the Sky-breaking Form!

Boom!

The rainbow created by the spear glow collided with the blade aura without any earth-shattering impact.

The rainbow solidified by the spear light easily penetrated the blade aura.

And with unstoppable force, it struck against Qiu Bingrong’s second strike, which he believed would be a killing blow.

Although it could not completely penetrate the second blade aura, it obliterated most of its energy.

Whoosh!

Ye Feng followed up swiftly, casually sweeping his spear to reduce it to nothingness.

Qiu Bingrong, still in a state of rage, saw Ye Feng effortlessly shatter his attack and felt the hairs on his body stand on end.

Because with Ye Feng’s casual two strikes, the emitted might actually surpassed that of him, a late-stage True God Strongman.

What did this imply?

Just the thought of it made his scalp tingle with numbness.

But right now, there was no time for him to ponder, as Ye Feng had already advanced, and his speed was unbelievably fast.

Watching the long spear thrusting towards him, Qiu Bingrong frantically retreated while rapidly trying to block.

Each collision between the two Divine Artifacts, the energy fluctuations they caused, shattered asteroids in the surrounding area into pieces.

And Qiu Bingrong, at the epicenter of the duel, felt as though the opponent was not holding a spear but a pillar capable of holding up the heavens.

That terrifying force effortlessly suppressed him.

If that were all there was to it, it might have been bearable, but what he found unbearable was that he was also being suppressed at the level of rules.

With every clash of the Divine Artifacts containing rules, it was always his rules that got obliterated first. If he didn’t have Divine Power to sustain him, just a few moves would likely have been enough for him to be defeated.

But this was the Tianxing Minefield, a place with omnipresent suppressive forces causing his aura to decline rapidly.

In just a few seconds, he had fallen from late-stage True God to mid-stage True God.

Pu pu pu!

Because of the sudden drop in strength, he couldn’t defend in time and three bloody holes appeared on his body instantly.

"Why? Why?" He stared intensely at Ye Feng, whose aura was only slowly slipping, his face filled with disbelief.

Less powerful than his opponent, inferior in the mastery of rules, why was he now even less capable of withstanding this suppressive force?

Suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind and then it couldn’t be held back anymore.

"Could it be... the Supreme Rule?" When he uttered those four words, Qiu Bingrong’s voice trembled.

A genius who grasped the Supreme Rule even before achieving True God status, everyone knew what that meant.

This was a God King Seed indeed!

In at most a million years, the Heavenly God Court might very well give rise to a Divine King.

By then, the pattern of this universe would be rewritten.
